Oh-! ...Yeah, that makes sense I guess...Cyclizar really like to run after all.

I guess if you went to the race track they wouldn't let you in on roller blades either, so somewhere like this is as good as any!

[.....................................................]

...is 'Davie' as in 'Harley Davidson'...?

[textbookcase]

Ha! Ya got it in one. Yeah, see, 'cause my name's Harley, and he's like a motorcycle... Pretty clever, don'tcha think?

[seacub]

Your name's Harley?!

[He can't keep the grin off his face.] That IS great..! I'm not really the greatest with names personally...I made mine, so I'm attached to that one at least, but I still regret not realizing 'Blue' would be orange when she evolved...

[....Hm.] ...though maybe Oxy was still pretty good...

[heh]

[textbookcase]

Thanks! Harley's... Kind of something I picked, too. It's a long story. What's the name you picked for yourself?

And listen, any name can work if you know how to spin it. Your blue buddy ended up orange? Well maybe the story is you did know that, and the mismatched name is the joke.

[seacub]

Yeah?

[Well, 'long story' tends to be code for 'I don't want to talk about it', so he'll skip around that, but...Oh!] Emporio Alniño!

[And if Harley knows a Lick of Spanish-]

Heh! I guess I can go with that, but she'll definitely know no matter what!

[textbookcase]

Emporio Alniño-- Sounds kinda big and fancy. Although I think "niño" is anything but, right? Just means boy?

[In other words, she knows Spanish, but not quite well enough to fully understand!]

But it's got a good sound to it, really! I like it.

[seacub]

Haha..! Y...yeah...technically it'd be 'El Niño', but it was all I could really remember hearing my mom say...so, that seemed as close to a name as I could get, right?

...Thanks though! It really grew on me after all!

[textbookcase]

All you could remember hearing...? Oh. [Harley's smile falters a little, but only for a moment.] Yeah, ya worked with what ya had. That's some top-shelf resourcefulness!

[seacub]

[A slight wince, but it's a smile at least, and one that comes with a shrug.] I did what I could at least- and I made it this far right? So even if there wasn't anyone there, I still made it- and in a pretty rough place too, so I think she'd probably be proud of that.

[Imagine Harley, if a kid grew up in Arkham.

That is basically what happened here. Less asylum more prison, but the power scale was pretty bad!]
